The effective electron Schottky barrier height (φBN) of nickel silicide (NiSi:C) formed on silicon-carbon (Si 1-yCy or Si:C) films with different substitutional carbon concentrations Csub was investigated. φBN was observed to decrease substantially with an increase in Csub. When C sub is increased from 0% to 1.5%; φBN is reduced by 200 meV. The results of this work could be useful for the reduction in contact resistance between nickel silicide and silicon-carbon source and drain in strained n -channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. © 2009 American Institute of Physics;
